    General rule of thumb (not carved into stone) is an outboard will consume the most fuel (1) pushing the boat off plane above trolling speed, (2) pushing the boat to plane, and (3) full throttle. Trolling JUST off idle and planing at around 3/4 throttle are usually the most efficient.

    If you have too many, AND not enough, you're a collector.
